Writing Good Paragraphs Summer Camp
Class experience
US Grade 3 - 6
In this one-time class, students will become better writers as they learn to write good paragraphs. First, we'll talk about the structure of a paragraph and what a topic sentence is.

After that, we dive into paragraph unity as students learn how to make sure all their sentences relate to the topic sentence and provide supporting details. They will do some exercises where they pick out a sentences that don't belong in a paragraph. Finally, they...

I love working with kids! I have 13 years of teaching experience, and I have taught in both traditional school settings and as a homeschool parent. I am passionate about helping kids at all levels of their reading and writing journey. It's so exciting when I see a student gain confidence as a reader/writer or when I can help a young aspiring writer achieve their dreams. My writing experience includes writing copy for marketing materials, ghost writing for corporate executives, technical writing, writing newspaper articles, and writing instructions for digital technology applications. Managing a corporate internal newsletter was one of my favorite projects. I created the newsletter design, interviewed and wrote articles about team members, and managed the editing and submission process for all the contributors. As a hobby, I love to write short stories, poetry, and songs. I can't imagine my life without writing. My education includes a BA in Communications and a Master of Science in Technical and Professional Communication (MSTPC). Because I have completed 2 years of my BA and all of my MS classes online, I am skilled with the various aspects of online learning. I love using what I have learned to help kids become better at reading and writing.
